This location is shown only to members

Life is creative! What is special about this club? This is time set aside just for creativity and yourself. Here you will find an atmosphere of positivity, fun, acceptance and support.

The space where we meet is an art school (Lascaux Academy, El Camino, Belmont (edge of San Carlos).) There are all kinds of media, paper, tools. There is clay and other types of stuff. A lot of our members are hands on creators and crafters but people work in digital, writing, whatever.

Each person can choose each time if they want to focus on their project or mix it up and talk with other people. It’s really amazing how much we pick up from talking to each other and by just seeing what other people are doing.

With a focus on creativity it is a totally nonjudgmental environment. The group as a whole does not talk about marketing, “the art world,” how to get into galleries, etc., we are too busy doing art and having fun.

We play music, bring food to share. We don’t seem to need rules…everyone recognizes the nature of this group, common courtesy, positivity, friendliness, helping out.

WHERE…There is feedback that it is hard to find, probably because it is a bit hard to find (working on that.) For orientation, it almost on the border of San Carlos. No matter how you come by car you will be going Northbound (towards SF) on El Camino. Forget finding Lascaux by sign! It is located in a 10 business strip mall that has a Domino’s Pizza in the middle. Find Domino’s, also at 1501 El Camino, 94002. At Dominoes’, slow down. At the end of the strip mall there is an unmarked, unlit driveway that goes down behind the buildings and has 40 parking spaces. If you see street parking that is fine except where it is green 15-minute parking. Lascaux Academy is the “last” space in the strip mall.

Message from the founder... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ **I believe we are helpers to each other's unfolding, and I want this to be a space where our creative work becomes manifested into the world. Each of us has something to contribute. But it requires showing up. This takes COURAGE and we are here to support you on this journey.**

"Your dream is your soul calling you into alignment with yourself." Andrea Schroeder Are you a creative spirit with dreams of manifesting your work in the world (or already are)? Do you have a creative practice in place that nurtures your creativity and inspires your work? If not, would you like to start one? Let's get together and connect with kindred spirits to nurture our creative work and fuel our inspiration. This is a group for any creative (writer, photographer, painter, musician, crocheter, etc.) who is looking to fill up their well of inspiration, build a creative practice, and connect to like-minded souls. Here you can find authentic connection with other creatives who are working on their dreams and looking to bring beautiful things into this world. A safe, supportive, and collaborative space where we can get together and simply create and engage in our work, share it if we're ready, and walk away recharged, inspired, and supported. Think of it as an incubator for your creative dreams :) ”Creative work is not a selfish act or a bid for attention on the part of the actor. It’s a gift to the world and every being in it. Don’t cheat us of your contribution. Give us what you’ve got.” ~Steven Pressfield “Art is when you hear a knocking from your soul — and you answer.” ~Terri Guillemets
